New 10 Megapixel Lens Series For Extremely Demanding Applications- Kowa Introduces New JC10M Lenses with Ultra High Resolution

    TORRANCE, CA, July 20, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Kowa Announces a new series of 10 megapixel lenses with advanced optical innovations designed to set the standard in a wide range of applications such as machine vision inspection, high-end surveillance, 3D systems, and more. "With 10 megapixel resolution, our lenses can provide crisp images that are of the highest quality," says Andrew Kam, Sales Consultant of Kowa Optimed, Inc. "The JC10M Series also uses Kowa's XD (eXtra low Dispersion) glass to drastically reduce chromatic aberration and minimize distortion."

Kowa's new 2/3", C-Mount JC10M lenses feature 200lp/mm resolution and low distortion to maximize performance. They also incorporate Kowa's special broad band coating and floating mechanism design, which ultimately increases transmission from visible to NIR and reduces chromatic aberration from close distance to infinity. In addition, each lens has a short minimum focus distance with a compact design that allows for easy installation in systems with limited space.

The JC10M lenses are available through Kowa's network of authorized dealers.
